Record Research Company: Family History Research, Historical Document Research, Court Document Resea We have both a love and obsession for historical research.
We are a small research company, owned by Alfreda Potrafke and Mark Jordan. We do ALL types of historical and genealogical (family history) research. We have over 25 years of research experience between us; doing historical document and multiple family genealogies using libraries, societies, courthouses, cemeteries, archives, health departments, the internet and dusty family closets, as well as ma
ny other repositories. We have done research in multiple states. In this field there is little training that can replace actual hands-on experience, and we provide you with both hands-on and educational learning experience. Our research is very thorough and when doing this research, we will search for your records/family information as if we are searching for ourselves. We know and understand the excitement this brings! We are doing something we love, which makes us much more effective! We believe in working closely with you one-on-one via email, phone, postal mail, or however you choose, so that you get the results you want and need to move forward with your genealogies, research, historical articles, presentations, personal curiosities, or whatever it is you are looking for.
